DR. RADU DRĂGULETE, PRIMARY NEPHROLOGIST

Image
Nephrology is the branch of internal medicine that detects and treats kidney, urinary tract and prostate diseases - except for the surgical treatment provided by urology. Nephrology is closely related to the rest of internal medicine (cardiology, gastroenterology, etc.), from at least the following: 1.    Kidney pain can have consequences for the whole body:         High blood pressure, sodium retention (edema), heart failure Hematological         disorders: anemia, thrombosis Electrolyte         and acid-base disorders: hyperkalemia (increased potassium in the blood), acidosis, hypocalcemia (decreased calcium) Cocaine         disorders: osteoporosis, hyperparathyroidism Neurological         disorders: neuropathy, encephalopathy 2.

HOW DOES AN AESTHETIC WRINKLE TREATMENT SESSION TAKE PLACE?

Image
  Each patient is unique; therefore, each treatment must be adapted to him. During the first session in Doctor Luneau's office, the practitioner performed a complete and personalized analysis of your face. After this interview, she will direct you to the most relevant solution to treat your wrinkles. Whatever surface or deep, Doctor Luneau and his team will take the time to set up a protocol adapted to your wishes and the aesthetics of your face. The duration and process of the treatments vary according to your needs and do not require any surgical action. Doctor Ali provides the best health and wellness center in the USA. In most cases, upon leaving the practice, you will be able to resume a normal social, professional, and family life. The mesotherapy, or Mesolift, is a mixture of active molecules (multivitamins, amino acids, minerals, coenzymes, nucleic acid) and hyaluronic acid. Performed by injections of micro-drops, this solution stimulates collagen present in the ski...

KIDNEY FAILURE, DIALYSIS, KIDNEY TRANSPLANT

Image
On 1 July 1965, Professor George Lucas and his team realized the first kidney transplant in Liege. We just celebrated our 50th birthday. Since then, more than 1,250 patients have been transplanted at the university hospital. Transplant is the ultimate best solution for end-stage kidney disease patients under 70 years of age. Before the transplant and while waiting for it, there is, for the most part, dialysis, a supplement to the poor functioning of the kidneys, which has allowed tens of thousands of patients to wait since its development, sometimes (too much ) for a long time this happy event which somehow brings them back to life. Renal transplantation is the best treatment for severe renal failure, if possible, by favoring more living donors, even unrelated donors, as has just been recently published (New Engl J Med March 2016). Living kidney donation is proportionately little chosen in our country for various reasons, particularly that of a too-late arrival in the development of re...

REQUIREMENTS FOR A LIVING DONATION

  An organ donation from a living person is basically only possible if the procedure does not endanger their health in the long term. Therefore, a live donation is only an established method for the following organs: Kidney: A kidney transplant Liver: transplantation of parts of the liver In 2013, 2,272 kidneys were transplanted in the USA, 725 of them (32%) after living donation. Living donations of the liver are rarer: of 970 liver transplants, 83 (8.5%) were performed after living donation. Legal Requirements In order to avoid organ trafficking and the associated crime, strict requirements for living donation are made by kidney  Clinical Consultation . Another goal is to protect the donor, who exposes himself to a health risk (albeit a very small one). The donor must Be of legal age Be capable of giving consent. Be suitable as a donor, i.e., in good health so that the operation does not pose a great risk for him. Be rel...

WHAT DOES A DIETITIAN DO?

Image
  The dietician should not be confused with a nutritionist physician The latter studied medicine and then specialized in nutrition. The nutritionist performs medical procedures (prescription, analysis, surgery) to treat eating disorders (allergy, diabetes, obesity, hypertension, renal failure, undernutrition). The two professionals often work together, in particular in health centers (hospital, clinic, rehabilitation center, etc.) but they do not have the same role.  Dr. Mohammed Khan provides the best nephrology associates in Riverside.  The dietician who completed a two-year training course focused on food is considered a paramedical practitioner. The dietician, for her part, helps all her clients, sick or not, to improve their daily food hygiene to restore their health, lose weight in a healthy way or reduce the symptoms of their eating disorder.  Daily of a Dietitian:               ...
